Answer:

The Amount of work is done on the box by the net force is 378 Joules.

Explanation:

Given:

A 42 N net force is applied to a box which slides horizontally across a floor.

Force = 42 N

Force applied for a displacement of 9.0 m

Displacement = 9.0 m

To Find:

Amount of work is done on the box by the net force = ?

i.e Work = ?

Solution:

When a force causes a object to move, work is being done on the object by the force. Work is the measure of energy transfer when a force (F) moves an object through a distance (d).

Formula is given by

$Work=Force\times Displacement$

Substituting the given values we get

∴ Work = 42 × 9.0

∴ Work = 378 N-m

∴ Work = 378 Joules

The Amount of work is done on the box by the net force is 378 Joules.

In the average US household, the television is on 6.75 hours/day! How many hours will have passed after 77.7 years (the average

Nady [450]

Answer:

191433.4 hours

Explanation:

We are given that In the average US household, the television is on 6.75 hours/day! How many hours will have passed after 77.7 years (the average lifeexpectancy of an American)?

1 year - 365 days

Given that the television is on 6.75 hours/day.

If 1 year = 365 days

Convert 77.7 years to days by multiplying it by 365

77.7 × 365 = 28360.5 days

So the number of hours will be:

28360.5 × 6.75 = 191433.375 hours

Therefore, 191433.4 hours will pass.

Non of the options is correct.

Strontium 3890Sr has a half-life of 28.5 yr. It is chemically similar to calcium, enters the body through the food chain, and co

patriot [66]

Answer:

Thus the time taken is calculated as 387.69 years

Solution:

As per the question:

Half life of $^{3890}Sr\, t_{\frac{1}{2}}$ = 28.5 yrs

Now,

To calculate the time, t in which the 99.99% of the release in the reactor:

By using the formula:

$\frac{N}{N_{o}} = (\frac{1}{2})^{\frac{t}{t_{\frac{1}{2}}}}$

where

N = No. of nuclei left after time t

$N_{o}$ = No. of nuclei initially started with

$\frac{N}{N_{o}} = 1\times 10^{- 4}$

(Since, 100% - 99.99% = 0.01%)

Thus

$1\times 10^{- 4} = (\frac{1}{2})^{\frac{t}{28.5}}}$

Taking log on both the sides:

$- 4 = \frac{t}{28.5}log\frac{1}{2}$

$t = \frac{-4\times 28.5}{log\frac{1}{2}}$

t = 387.69 yrs

At a certain location, Earth has a magnetic field of 0.60 ✕ 10−4 T, pointing 75° below the horizontal in a north-south plane. A

saveliy_v [14]

Answer with Explanation:

We are given that

Magnetic field,B= $0.6\times 10^{-4} T$

$\theta=75^{\circ}$

Length of wire,l=15 m

Current,I=19 A

a.We have to find the magnitude of magnetic force and direction of magnetic force.

Magnetic force,F= $IBlsin\theta$

Using the formula

$F=0.6\times 10^{-4}\times 15\times 19sin75$

$F=16.5\times 10^{-3} N$

Direction= $tan\theta=cot(90-75)=tan15^{\circ}$

$\theta=15^{\circ}$

15 degree above the horizontal in the northward direction.

When a net force of 17.0 newtons is applied to a dictionary placed on a frictionless table, it accelerates by 3.75 meters/second

4vir4ik [10]

Force = (mass) x (acceleration) (Newton's second law of motion)

Divide both sides of the equation by 'acceleration', and you have

Mass = (force) / (acceleration)

Mass = 17 newtons / 3.75 meters per second-sqrd = 4.533 kilograms (rounded)

On a hot day, the temperature of a 65,000-L swimming pool increases by 1.20°C. What is the net heat transfer during this heating

vichka [17]

Answer:

326149.2 KJ

Explanation:

The heat transfer toward and object that suffered an increase in temperature can be calculated using the expression:

Q = m*cv*ΔT

Where m is the mass of the object, cv is the specific heat capacity at constant volume, which basically means the amount of heat necessary for a 1kg of water to increase 1C degree in temperatur, and ΔT is the change in temperature.

A 65000 L swimming pool will have a mass of:

65000L * $\frac{1m^3}{1000L} * \frac{1000kg}{1m^3}$ = 65000 kg

The specific heat capacity at constant volume of water is equal to 4.1814 KJ/KgC.

We replace the data and get:

Q = m*cv*ΔT = 65000 kg * 4.1814 KJ/KgC * 1.2°C = 326149.2 KJ
